Fenn Rau in a support ship? Wha?

Every single pilot that changed factions has had completely different ability. Apart from PS I doubt Rebel Fenn will have anything in common with Scum Fenn.

2/3 EU ships 1/3 Disney Kanon ships. I approve!

I'm really pleased to see a ps9 pilot who isn't firmly welded to PTL.

Which one? Wedge, Han, Vader, Talonbane, Scum Fenn, Dengar or Quickdraw?

Last I checked the only one stuck with PtL was Soontir.

And he is near to unplayable even with it nowadays...

They announced wave 12 at the inflight report at gencon. There's videos available of the stream and pics floating around. Spoiler article will hopefully come monday

@westiebestie

I will most probably repaint the Kimogila, maybe orange/yellow, the Hutt Scheme sucks.

@markcsoul

Concerning the SWg ships, imho it's the Hutt scheme here as well. The ships look really great when repainted, just look up some of the fantastic examples in the painting subsection.

@ficklegreendice and some others, where is the problem with the melodic Kimogila or just M12? M12 is easier the VT/YV/VCX and esp YTxxxx.

SCUMboat is more fun

Yeah, with no native reposition, there's not a great reason for it at all.

Man, rebels really do suffer in the PS 9 department (yes, Fat Han was great, but not so much now, and Poe is nice and all, but not on the same level as some others out there)

Maybe if they use Poe as a Resistance A-Wing pilot we could see a better Ace build for him (assuming Resistance A-Wings have better primaries than their ancestors).

No worries, the X-wing fix will make Wedge Tier 0.

So what will "Scrambler" Missiles do?

Why Title needs an Reference card?

Jam action seems to be on Reload Action Reference card, why?

Too bad even the High resolution picture won't make sense of Enforcer title..

Anyway I am stoked to see how it will turn out!

Titles and modifications always get a ref card.

I hate to moan but they look awful. This game is becoming unrecognisably Star Wars in design, and I say that as someone who is loving playing it.

Um....the phantom 2 is an old trade federation ship (so prequel star wars) and the Gunboat is like a mini shuttle (also star wars) and the Kimo looks very much star wars imo. Besides the phantom the new ships were made from old star wars designs from the EU video games. Very star wars imo.

You praised the Ghost for "keeping prequel ships out" of the wave. But the Ghost is only seen in the Rebels TV show and possibly Rogue One at the battle of Scariff for 3 seconds though that was never officially confirmed as the Ghost to my knowledge... not a "strong association" really...

Trying to find the source, but it was confirmed that yes that is the Ghost at Scariff. You also see it landed on Yavin 4 and you hear in the background on Yavin 4, "General Sendula, please report to the briefing room." It was confirmed by the producers/LFL that they are one in the same.

Thanks, didn't feel like digging for the Info, I missed it at Yavin 4, I'll have to re-watch the movie again (like I need an excuse :P)

When they are getting ready to leave Yavin to head to Jedha you see it landed in the top left corner.

After the group briefing where they refuse to fight and before Jyn starting talking to the rest of the squad you hear the call for Sendula

The page for General Sendula I remember but I'll have to check out the first Ghost siting at Yavin 4 as I only saw it over Scariff, thanks again!

Also, when the comm guy is running to inform Mon Mothma about the mission, watch the lower left corner for Chopper.

My biggest fear about this wave is that the generic astromech is really good, forcing me to buy 4 Phantom 2s. As a primary rebel player, these expansions with no generic pilots are frustrating. I really look forward to the other ships released. I really like the looks of the Kimogila.

My current purchase hopes are:

1 Phantom 2

2 Kimogilas

2 Gunboats

Interestingly enough, the Ghost in Rogue One is Phantomless...

More excited for the Kimo than the gunboat. Such a fun ship to fly in SWG!

I love both these.

But the Kimo may make me a Scum player.

That has been how many rebel ships with no generics since wave 8 now? 4?

IGs are the only other, correct?
